  2. Pressure support ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_support

    Pressure support ventilation (PSV), also known as pressure support, is a spontaneous mode of ventilation. The patient initiates every breath and the ventilator delivers support with the preset pressure value. With support from the ventilator, the patient also regulates their own respiratory rate and tidal volume. [1]

  3. Reference range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_range

    The standard definition of a reference range for a particular measurement is defined as the interval between which 95% of values of a reference population fall into, in such a way that 2.5% of the time a value will be less than the lower limit of this interval, and 2.5% of the time it will be larger than the upper limit of this interval, whatever the distribution of these values.

    One study compared respiratory rate counted using a 90-second count period, to a full minute, and found significant differences in the rates. [citation needed]. Another study found that rapid respiratory rates in babies, counted using a stethoscope, were 60–80% higher than those counted from beside the cot without the aid of the stethoscope.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_specific_volume

    The PSV is usually measured in milliLiters (mL) per gram (g), proteins > 30 kDa can be assumed to have a partial specific volume of 0.708 mL/g. [1] Experimental determination is possible by measuring the natural frequency of a U-shaped tube filled successively with air, buffer and protein solution.
